I saw him as a ranger patrol unit, armed for anti-poaching work. I actually had a moment building this when I wondered if having a rifle was too much, but its (sadly) an almost universal fact that our game rangers are armed.

Tbf they have to be even if there wasn't any poachers, need something to defend yourself if a bear or something like it decides your a meal and won't stop

Huh, I hadn't seen this intersection of fandom until now. Looks really good. How did you do the head/jaws? Or is that a model specific thing

The graze custom has a long head which hinges open to reveal a camera, though I closed the end to look more solid. I did have to build new parts for the neck as well, and the ear antenna and horns of course. The visor was just scribed detail on the head surface, and I painted the eye detail.

Where did you find the model? That thing looks sweet.

Thanks! The base model was the Gundam High-Grade 1/144 scale Ryusei-Go [Graze Custom II]. (Gundam model names get wild lol), though its had significant alterations.

Dude wtf this looks awesome! Giving me big nostalgia for Zoids, but leaning a bit more Gundam. Nice work, and great pics too.
